Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Velvet Mood Extrait

Product Overview

Oud Velvet Mood Extrait de Parfum by Maison Francis Kurkdjian is a fruity woody fragrance created by Francis Kurkdjian and reimagined in 2026 as a new interpretation of the original Oud Velvet Mood.

Part of the Maison's Oud collection, the fragrance explores oud through the tactile sensation of velvet against the skin. Its inspiration lies in a journey through the desert, where sand warmed beneath the midday sun evokes the softness, warmth and enveloping texture of sumptuous fabric.

The 2026 composition introduces a more pronounced fruity dimension, contrasting the darkness of oud and supple leather with the velvety carnality of peach. The result retains the collection's fascination with the rarity and mystery of oud while presenting it through a softer, luminous and distinctly tactile lens.

What Does Oud Velvet Mood Extrait de Parfum Smell Like?

Oud Velvet Mood Extrait opens with saffron, bringing a warm, subtly spicy and leathery character that immediately introduces the fragrance's darker side.

The heart reveals a plush peach accord, ripe and velvety rather than sharply fruity. Jasmine brings an airy floral luminosity that lifts the peach and creates contrast against the deeper materials beneath it.

As it settles, oud becomes the foundation of the composition, dense, woody and distinctly leathery. A supple leather accord smooths its darker facets and reinforces the impression of soft fabric against warm skin. The result is a rich fruity woody fragrance where fleshy peach, saffron and jasmine are enveloped by powerful oud and smooth leather.

When to Wear Oud Velvet Mood Extrait de Parfum

Oud Velvet Mood Extrait is particularly suited to autumn and winter, when its saffron, leather and dense oud can develop fully, while the peach brings an unexpected brightness to the composition.

Its rich Extrait de Parfum concentration and enveloping character make it particularly compelling for evenings, special occasions and anyone looking for an oud fragrance that balances power with a softer, more sensual fruit-and-leather texture.
